The refinery of the Havemeyer Sugar
Refining Company, at Williamsburg, n
Y, one of the largest in the country. was
totally destroyed by fire on June 18th.
The property burned included $4,000 bar
rels of refined sugar, and the total loss, it
is thought, will reach nearly $2OOO,OO0.
The San Diego "Sun" of the ID inst.
says that sugar refinery at that place at
no distant day is an assured fact. The re-
fnery has an important bearing on the
steamship line from San Francisco to Ho-
nolulu, and will also figure in connection
with the railroad line from San Francisco
to Yuma.

queen Kap1oIani london.

A London dispatch of June 10th says
LADY Salisbury's crush at the Foreign
Office, on Wednesday, was scarcely as
brilliant as its predecessor. The heat
was terrible, and the absence of any I'M
due crowding was perhaps a fortunate
accident. Royalty was only represented
by the Duke of Connaught, Queen Ka-
piolani in her yellow grand Gordon, and
the burly form of the Maharaiah of Ho-
kar in apple green. The Duke took
Lady Salisbury to supper. The flowers
were abundant and well arranged. Two
bands played in different rooms. Lord
Salisbury talked Polynesian politics at
supper to the Hawaiian Queen. Every
body was away before l o'clock. The
gathering was as successful as one could
reasonably expect.

PROGRESSIVE LEGISLATION

The Interstate Commerce bill is, in.
eff ct, a conn. romise between the Cullonl
and Regnn plaus. by which, the poo. lug
snd long and short-haul feature Of the
House bill are retained ON one side, and
the commission plan of the Senate bill
on the other. The RAILROADS. have OBJ.
jected strenuously against the pooling
aud the long and short haul cha uses, and
predictions have been freely made Of
damage and disaster, not only to the
railroads, but to the public, if the bill
passed. But public sentiment has for
once proved sire niger than the rail oads.
The country has. at length, grown
weary of rate wars, pooling schemes. ex-
tortionate charges, determinations,
preferences and secret contracts, and it
will not believe that some plan of sub
jectihg these wealthy aud powerful cor
porntions 10 Legislative supervision and
control is not iluperatively demanded.
Long enough, it thinks, has tie legis-
lation of the country been subjected to
railroad supervision and control. It has
taken good many yeara to forward the
matter to it's present stage, and the fail
ure of the bill now would not be received
with patience. It is not, of course, tho
best plan possible. Trial can alone per-
feet it. But if it dots not work salts
fsotorily, it will be amended. A great
victory has been won by the people.
